Solution to Failing Education

Problem Stated - Our Public Schools are Failing. Our new teacher college graduates are sitting home unemployed or are working in Hannaford, etc. Here is the solution. Get rid of the Federal Dept.of Education. Get rid of teacher's unions. Hire many, many new young teachers at lower starting pay. Our new teachers will work for less pay, since they have a calling to teach young people, not to make a lot of money. Set up classrooms whereever possible, with one teacher and maximum of 10 students per class. Forget about Large Taj Mahal Learning buildings and Learning communities. One teacher, 10 students, lower pay, strict oversight of teaching programs by caring and sincere principals, who will evaluate and pay teachers according to the children's progress.
All in Favor.........Say Aye.
